Man and Beast at War.
4 FARMER AND A STEER HAVE A BATTLE THAT RE-
SUITS FATALLY TO BOTH.


SUITS FATALLY TO BOTH.
Monday forenoon F. w. Flowerdew, farmer,
living alone some miles west OF Lincoln Nebraska,
was out In the field stepping OF portion TO
plough, when he noticed a range steer about half
a mile distant. He went on with the measure
ment, but presently, hearing something approach,
he turned and saw the steer coming at him full
speed. head down, and about twenty yards away
Mi. Fl0werdew was not armed. and his only way
TO avoid being struck by the first charge was to
dodge IL, which he did. The steer turned and came
again, but with not so much force, and Mr. Flower
dew succeeded In getting his right hand into his
nostrtls. Here the battle began between man and
beast. The steer was years old. and as Flowerdew
is tall and powerful man it made a nearly equal
fight. For over half an hour they struggled. All
the while Flowerdew was working his way to the
house. in front or which he secured a heavy club.
When he got hold OF this he had better show,
and commenced to pound the steer over the head
and nose. This the steer stood and suffered, but
the minute the pounding stopped the brute
charged and had to be beaten OF. The last des-
perate effort made by the steer knocked Flower
dew to the ground Although the animal was fast
failing from loss OF blood IL gored its victim h0rr-
bly,. Flowerdews injuries are fatal. The steer,
from the loss OF blood and exhaustion, fell dead at
his side.

Novel Suit for Damages.
TIE PLAINTIFF CHARGED BY NEWSPAPER WITH
USING BAD GRAMMAR.

THE PLAINTIFF CHARGED By A NEWSPAPER WITH
USING BAD GRAMMAR.
The s., 900 libel suit brought against the New
Haven Union by Geo. II. Ford, proprietor OF one
OF the fashionable jewery stores OF that city, is
peculiar one, and has created considerable CON-
ment. Next June New Haven Will formally dedi-
cate q "soldiers' monument" and number OF
citizens there have for some time been engaged In
making arrangements to have the ceremonies i'm
posing and attractive. 1t was decided that IL
would be impossible to make the celebration q
complete success unless President Cleveland and
his wife were present. SO IT was determined to In
vfte them. Jewe,er Ford, who was on the invita-
ton committee, as the story goes, made up his
mind to get up an elaborate invitation for the
Chief Magistrate, and he did so with the aid OF a
local artist. 1t was so gorgeous that Mr.. Ford
placed it on exhibition in one OF his show windows
While thus exposed to view 1t was discovered that
the wording OF the invitation was extremely IN
grammatical and the Union called attention to IL
through its columns. This did not please Jeweler
Ford and he has brought suit asking for $4,000
damages. The best grammarfans In the city de-
cided the Union was right, and the gentlemen In
charge Of the arrangements for the day OF dedica-
ton had another invitation prepared, which read
more correctly, and which was recently rendered
TO President Cleveland. Mr.. Ford claims the linton
has held him up for ndicule and contempt in an
editorial but Just how much he has been injured
cannot be determined until the case Is tried. The
suit is returnabe It the May term OF the Superior
Court.

REV. I. H. Cook EXPELLED. The Methodist

the Rev. L. H. cook from the church for immoral
conduct Cook declined to be present, and his re-
quest for change OF venue to some other district
conference was denied. The case against the rev.

because OF the bold manner In which the alleged
sin was committed and the estimation In which
he was held In February last Mr. Cook was
called to Lancaster, Cook county, TO testify Ia a

route he formed a conlpanionShip with woman,
